Salt stress adversely affects plant growth and productivity worldwide. Overcoming the defects of profiling analyses caused by heterogeneity of technical variations in individual studies and prediction of salt stress response key genes and pathways are conducive to mine potential salt responses mechanisms and of great interest for agricultural research. In this research, a literature-searching strategy was used to identify salt stress response expression profiling studies in Arabidopsis from the PubMed database, the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, and the ArrayExpress database. Twenty-five studies were filtered from the 2161, 121, and 700 identified studies. A rank aggregation method (RRA)- based meta-analysis were conducted to synthesize the 25 profiling datasets and identified 829 dysregulated genes with 452 up-regulated and 377 down-regulated in NaCl-treated samples. Gene ontology enrichment and pathway analyses classified the 452 up-regulated genes into functional categories involved response to plant hormone and compounds,'' signaling'' and developmental plasticity,'' etc. In total, 111 dysregulated transcription factors (TFs) were further identified and 387 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were predicted as these TFs' targets. The identification of transcriptional factors, functional repertoire, and biological pathways response to the salt stress signal would promote mechanistic studies underlying stress tolerance process in Arabidopsis at systematic level and would contribute to discover the conservation and diversification of stress resistance and adaptation abilities of various plants during the evolution of plant kingdom.
